Jonas Ådahl d622960429 renderer/native: Add udev rule to select primary GPU
Sometimes the automatically selected primary GPU isn't suitable with no
way to make an well educated guess to do it better. To make it possible
for the user to override the automatically calculated default, make it
possible to override it using a udev rule.

E.g. to select /dev/dri/card1 as the primary GPU, add a file e.g.
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-mutter-primary-gpu.rules (path my vary
depending on distribution) containing the fellowing line:

ENV{DEVNAME}=="/dev/dri/card1", TAG+="mutter-device-preferred-primary"

Reboot or manual triggering of udev rules to make it take effect may be
required.
